What a morning and what a turn out! For the Murph and the Beatdown. Always good to see so many pax posting. So cheers to it!

I had no idea what the Murph was even though I could have googled it. I did not. Matter fact-I wrote the stupid Beatdown centered around upper body. So now it feels like I can’t even hold my own bewbz up.

it went like this-

The stupid Murph

Then a slight mosey to the blocks for an easy get the arms ready for beach season session.

curls, skull crushers, overhead press, side to side rotating merkins. 5, 10 then 20. YHC will not schedule that many side to sides again. No one had fun. (Stupid Murph)

Next up on the menu- run all the way to the other side of the parking lot for some line action.

Bear crawl to each line, Mike Tyson at the first. Then 2 at the next line and 3 at the next. Going up to somewhere between 10-15 lines. I think we started on the same line but ending was 🤷🏻‍♂️ . On the way back down the lines we did crawlbear for travel and dive bombers going up each line. This also hurt (stupid Murph)

repeat with crab walk and mini dips, returning with LBCs on each line.

the last part would have taken too long so we modified and found some benches for quick leg work, a shoulder tap derkin and I can’t remember the others.

Finished with merry and COT!

I loved being out this morning. A little later so I actually know what some of you dudes look like. I had a message this morning at COT and I’m really glad I said something. The older I get, the more I see guys my age with families. Then I also see some of those same guys are now paaaing away. Struggling with things that I can’t even understand but I do know all I can think about is their kids. Or their families. Or any of that. Would that have been different if someone had said something? As guys were expected to be strong for everyone, and then we forget ourselves. We forget that we matter too and that our families do love us. It’s not the norm to reach out and be supportive to other guys (outside of F3) and I think that’s something that’s missing. Guys need to hear it. You know someone that always puts their all into something? Make a comment. It may be the only atta boy he gets. And that may be all he needs. Lift each other up, shit is super hard as it is. Be the light. Cheers dudes 🍻
